Designing Great Training

Home Designing Great Training

Designing training is an essential skill in learning and development, yet it is one that is not often given proper attention. Most focus tends to be on delivery skills, and design is somehow expected to be ‘picked up’. But good training can only be achieved if proper thought, time and effort have been put into the design of the training and that thought and effort is recorded. Being ‘good on your feet’ isn’t always enough.

Giving proper consideration to design means that the training is more likely to meet individual and business needs, and produce tangible results.

This e-book will help you to design quality training by taking a structured approach. It follows a logical, step-by-step method and suggests what should be considered at each stage. Although it is written from the perspective of designing face-to-face training, most of the principles apply equally well to other forms of learning design.

It’s not a theoretical book. It gets straight to the point and focuses on practicalities. You don’t need to read it all in one go – you can dip in and out to suit your needs.

An essential for the toolkit of any training designer, it covers:

  1. Initial Consultancy - Is training the answer?
  2. Training Needs Analysis – What are we trying to achieve?
  3. Research – How do we get from A to B?
  4. Transfer of Learning – Is your organisation ready?
  5. Stakeholders – Who are they and what do they want?
  6. Aims and Objectives – What will people be able to do after completing the training?
  7. Content Scoping – What will we cover, and what should we leave out?
  8. Blend – What will be in the learning mix?
  9. Structuring an Event – How do you decide a structure that flows?
  10. Methods – How can you bring your content to life in a way that is meaningful and will stick?
  11. Variety – How can you adapt your training to suit different people and different circumstances?
  12. Practicalities – How can you make sure your event will work no matter who delivers it, where or when?
  13. Materials – What materials do you need and in what format?
  14. Write (or Create)! – How can you create materials that gain and retain attention?
  15. Review – What should you do to get your training event approved?
  16. Learning Evaluation – How will you demonstrate that your training has worked?
  17. Pilot – Why should you pilot, and what should you focus on?
  18. Launch – How can you create some excitement about your event and get people signed up to attend/complete it?
